And you rule out one simple implementation technique: transcode the entity
then parse it.  If people complain that it is too difficult to find <? in
a document, they may scream if you have to transcode, and normalize,
and parse all at the same time. 

And also you rule out regular expression parsing. 

Also, you can no longer send it as MIME text/*
